IContention.ned¶

Name	Type	Description
IContention	module interface	Interface for modules that implement contention-based channel access. For each frame, Contention listens on the channel for a DIFS (AIFS) period then for a random backoff period before transmitting the frame, and defers when a busy channel is sensed. After receiving a corrupted frame, EIFS is used instead of the original DIFS (AIFS).
